Welcome to Alexander Technique Oxford

I have been teaching the Alexander Technique for over 30 years and offer private
lessons in Oxford and Headington, as well as evening classes, workshops and courses
in Oxford. I am also the Director of the Oxford Alexander Training School, which
trains future teachers of the Alexander Technique.

The Alexander Technique is a method of physical and mental re-education which helps
us to look at and understand the way that we ‘use’ ourselves.

Some people use themselves well, but most people use themselves badly, creating huge
unnecessary strains and tensions throughout their bodies. The Alexander Technique
will teach you to use yourself better.

In so doing, the Technique can have a positive effect on a wide range of stresses
and ailments, including back, neck or shoulder pain and other muscular/skeletal problems,
headaches, RSI, breathing difficulties, sports and performance strain, stress related
conditions, anxiety and depression; as well as enhancing performance, improving vitality
and general wellbeing.

The Alexander Technique can help you, and anyone who is willing to learn. How it
can help and how much will be different for every individual. This website will give
you some information about the Technique and its benefits, how you can learn and
how to find out more information if you need to. But the Technique is essentially
about learning a new experience. It therefore has to be experienced to really understand
it; and the only real way of doing that is with one-to-one lessons. That is why
I encourage you to come along for a lesson; or for a more general introduction or
recap, join in one of my evening classes or courses.

It is with great regret that we announce that Stephen sadly passed away on 26 April
2015.
